Air Canada beginning in May 2024 will connect airports in southern Ontario with the carrier’s hub at Toronto Pearson International Airport via motorcoaches through a partnership with The Landline Company, the airline announced Wednesday.
For the pilot program, Landline will operate six nonstop round trips daily between Toronto and each John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport and the Region of Waterloo International Airport, with the potential for expanded options in the future, according to Air Canada.
Customers will be able to book a single itinerary combining the motorcoach service with Air Canada flights “for a seamless, convenient and more sustainable journey,” according to the carrier. They also will have through-checked baggage when departing Hamilton or the Region of Waterloo, disruption protection and opportunities to earn points through Air Canada’s Aeroplan loyalty program.
